Ride the Storm (Roberto Rodriguez Calm Before the Storm Mix)

Come on in, I've been waiting for you

Sit down, relax

You know, I got a few things I've been thinking about

I'd like to share them with you

I know things have been a little strange around here lately

Because of all the, all the stuff going on outside the house

You know the pressure, the job

All those things that can wear you down

You know sometimes, just sometimes

You bring that home with you

And I understand but you know

I want us to just stop for a minute

And think about how much we have together

I'm not talking about the material things

You know I'm, I'm talking about the years

That we've given to each other

The laughter, the tears, the joys, and oh yes

We can't forget about the heartbreak

But hey, we're still together?

Not because we have to be but because we wanna be

I know we can make it, baby, we can make it, that's right

I mean, look at how far we've come already

All the things we've accomplished, we've accomplished together

Both going in the same direction

Wanting the same things for each other

Sometimes, you know, you call me and you say

"Oh I, I gotta work late tonight, I'm gonna be workin' late"

And I, I sit back, and I start to wonder about

Who you working with, and what you're workin' on

Yeah

And I might get a little upset

But then you know, you come home and

You always find some little way

To let me know I got no reason to worry

Oh yeah, I know you love me (we gonna ride the storm)

(I'm gonna keep you safe and warm)

(A deal is a deal)

(I haven't changed the way I feel)

(We gonna ride the storm)

(I'm gonna keep you safe and warm)

(A deal is a deal)

(I haven't changed the way I feel)

I know you're out there working for me and these kids

So you can buy things that we like

But you know something?

That's something nice baby, but

If you really want to know what I need

I need you

That's right

Yeah, I need you

I need more time with you

I need time with your arms around me

More times to appreciate each other

That's what we need together

And more time for all those little things that we do for each other

Because you know, little things add up

That's right, they make big things

It's all those little things that can make a woman feel so special

So loved and so adored

And you do that, yeah

You can make me feel adored

You do it when you want to

What about me? Oh, yeah!

I know, I know I have my moments too

When I can get on your nerves, uh-huh

But I want you to realize that taking care of the home, the kids

Working every day, that can start to wear anybody down

So when you come home at night

Maybe it's not lingerie and champagne like it used to be

But you know what's there?

That same old heart

The one that beats for you, baby

(We gonna ride the storm)

(I'm gonna keep you safe and warm)

(A deal is a deal)

(I haven't changed the way I feel)
